I have been a supporter of LSU likely since before you were born and have seen many many GODS (oops -coaches_ come and go.
I will always support LSU, but your effort to quiet anything against Miles has failed.
I, and you for that matter, should hold and keep Miles' feet to the fire. He is nothing more than a $4MM a year employee who did not perform.


People are entitled to be negative towards Miles, and I think most have done so over the course of the last month, particularly after the game. But there is certainly a point where that type of discussion serves no further purpose, and I think we've about reached the point where arguing over the merits of two quarterbacks that are no longer on our team has run its course.

If you want to view everything as me attempting to stifle negative conversation that's fine, but it's a false premise on your part. I'm just trying to look to the future and realize that we can't change the past.

I do not necessarily disagree with you, but I keep getting tired of those who think they are more of a fan, when in reality, they are Miles' disciple and just do not want to allow other people's opinions if it differs from theirs.
They just try to disguise it.

I don't think you can learn anything without a level of disagreement. Disagreement is good. But I think arguing over some of the shite that has happened at this point is frivolous.

There is a difference between bitching in public against LSU and here against Miles' decisions.


+1000

We love him for the 13-0 and the opportunity to play in the BCSCG. We hate that he didn't have a clue as to how to prepare for a pissed off team with a very smart coach.

If he could have turned all of his interview time into time studying film and got his starting QB away from the craps table maybe we would have at least made a showing.

Anyway, here's to hopefully learning a lesson and another championship this year.

I didn't know y'all were on the team? Cheer for those young men whose actions mean a win or a loss. I've never understood all of this anger about things that you all have zero control over.

You can thank Miles for dividing the team and the fanbase.

LSU football will be fine.. LSU basketball is where the complaints should be, we need to turn that program around now!

My biggest problem here is the negativity towards the program.
It's hurting LSU.

The bad thing about winning is you get a lot of bandwagon fans that only show up when you are successful because it some how enhances their pathetic existence.
When the team wins they are up in the clouds, when the team loses they are the first to berate everyone involved.
They are the Johnny Badasses of the internet that rather LSU lose to boast their egos and prove they are right, than win.
They are more than likely the reason TD.Com has lost many decent posters.
I'm not happy with the bad things that happened over the last month, but bitching non stop won't change it.
I'm all for bringing a positive attitude to the team, the fans and to LSU.
Count me in

"I'm just trying to looktobthe future and realize we can't change the past"

That is true and I would add that we could be even better prepared for the future if those in coaching leadership positions demonstrated some kind of learning and insight from the past

Anyone expressing "negativity" bout this LSU program is only showing their lack of understanding of LSU, the SEC, and big time college football.

Sometimes I wonder how we find our way home in the evening.

Agree on all counts. I reached this conclusion 2 days after the loss. The only way to move forward is to move forward.

Your ignorance rears its ugly head in that statement!! CLM has shown a great willingness and ability in the past to correct his mistakes, as I am sure he is more than aware of things he could have done better during the NC game. As far as during the regular season, I dont think too many would find much to criticize....LOL!! Except maybe the hardest to please, of which there are a few on here..
